Erykah Badu knows how to stir up controversy, doesn't she?

Erykah Badu Is Stirring Up 'Controversy'

Last week, an irate Erykah Badu instructed the Flaming Lips' Wayne Coyne to kiss her "glittery ass," after the frizzy-haired frontman released a shocking (and nudity-filled) video for their Heady Fwends collaboration "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" without her approval.

"As a human, I am disgusted with your what appears to be desperation and poor execution," she wrote in an epically long tweet. "As a director, I am unimpressed. As a sociologist I understand your type. As your fellow artist I am uninspired. As a woman I feel violated and underestimated."

Of course, at the time, Coyne's only response was a rather cheeky (get it?!?) image of his glitter-covered lips, along with the message "I kissed it! Thanks!" But now, in an interview with BBC Radio's 6Music, he's finally addressed the issue — and, to him, it's nothing more than Badu creating controversy for the sake of her career.

"She is a controversial entity in the world," Coyne said. "So everything that she does has an element of her doing art."
